Our schedule alternates Saturdays between our Strongsville and Brecksville studio locations. See our schedule for details.

This class is designed for all stages of pregnancy, including postpartum. It is a great way for pregnant women to strengthen mentally, physically, and emotionally for the birth of your baby, and for postpartum mothers to support your body’s recovery during the fourth trimester.

We have prenatal/postnatal yoga classes every Saturday, alternating between our two Modern Yoga locations.

The Benefits of Prenatal Yoga

Throughout the three trimesters of pregnancy, the body experiences physical changes which happen in stages to support the physiological self. Prenatal yoga practice can help increase flexibility, strength and endurance to the muscles needed for childbirth, reduce stress and anxiety, improve sleep, and decrease lower back pain, nausea, headaches, and shortness of breath. Yoga will help the body with cardiovascular and respiratory efficiency, endocrine and gastrointestinal functioning, immunity, and hand eye coordination and balance.

While prenatal yoga can have many physical benefits, it also provides us with a sense of community and a place for us to share and help each other become mentally prepared for labor and postpartum. At Modern Yoga, we want to empower expectant mothers to feel safe and strong and be able to provide the same for their baby.
